Description:: Returns the provided object's, model centre position in render version in format PositionASL, rather than transformed boundingCenter or LandContact vertices.
Groups:: Object Manipulation Render Time Scope

Syntax:: getPosWorldVisual object
Parameters:: object: Object
Return Value:: Array format PositionASL - the model centre's position (see getPosWorld) in render scope

Example 1:: _obj setPosWorld getPosWorldVisual _obj;
Example 2:: _groundObj modelToWorldVisualWorld [0,0,0] isEqualTo getPosWorldVisual _groundObj; // true
Example 3:: private _waveHeight = ((boat modelToWorldVisual [0,0,0]) vectorDiff getPosWorldVisual boat) select 2;
